PHOSPHATE LEMON RYE Co..
ST. LOUIS, Mo.
Dear Sirs-While my wife was visit
ing recently in Missouri she used one
or two bottles of your Phosphate
Lemon Rye, and since she came home
we have inquired of all our druggists
and none handle it. I wish you would
send me by express, G. o. D., one-half
dozen bottles of either small or large
size, whichever you have in the right
shape for sending that way. 1 believe
it to be what she needs and intend to
have her use it right along.
Yours truly,

 He tried to climb up the ladder, loaded with bottles.
 "Oh, miserable wretchl" exclaimed Jacqueline.
 Quicker than the wind, at the mo- ment when the head of the German appeared at the level of the floor, she took him by his long beard and threw him back into the cellar. Then she shut the heavy trap-door, put across the heavy iron bar that was used to fasten it and went out.
 "Who is that woman?" said the colonel. "Arrest her and let us go"
 The incendy began. From the four corners of the village the flames ascended towards heaven.
 When they were about POO yards from the village they stopped and q first sergeant read the roll call.
 All answered their names but one Hermann
 "Where is that brute?" asked an officer.
 Many answered that they had seen him in the young girls home.
 "Bring her here," commanded the colonel.
 When Jacqueline stood before that officer he said to her in French;
 ''Do you know where is corporal who remained in your house?"
 She answered not.
 "Ten volunteers here! Tie that girl and load your muskets."
 The muskets were loaded.
 "Aim 1" ordered the officer.
 twill you speak now, Frenchwo- man?"
 Jacqueline threw glance at the village in fire. The cabin of her dear beloved grandfather was heap of ashes.
 "Yes, now will answer you. Your brigand of corporal is in grandfather's cellar, in which l have locked him up."

The Novel of To-day.
Louisville Commercial.


 The world will owe Mir. Rider Haggard debt of gratitude if his thrilling romances succeeded in mak- ing the public stop long enough to think of the character of novels they have been reading before he re- vived the spirit of realism that has been neglected so long. There is a dash, a bravery and breeziness about his work that refreshes and inspires. He has displaced the amateur literary photographer, who through three hundred pages exposes his mental plates to catch the feeble gleam of the heroine's intellect, or to retain a pose of her figure, or particular tilt of her pretty nose. MT. Haggard has strode out under the sky where the sun shines, and the air is bracing, and people think, act and suffer. He has given us such draft of pure, whole some atmosphere that we will forgive him the congregations.
 The printing presses of America are turning out, day after day, stacks of "novels" so weak and trashy that they would play havoc with the mental discipline of feeble minded institute. Very few of them are vic ious, unless an occasional translation from the French is excepted, but the great majority are without purpose or ideas. If there was not a demand for these books, however, the publish CTS would not print them. The cheap editions now issued by most of the publishing houses are in measure responsible for this influx of new, vulgar and incompetent writers. Compared with the books which arc printed on good paper and handsome ly bound, the editions cost very little and are taken advantage of by ambi- tious young men and women to get their rejected manuscripts in print.
 Even the standard of novels, now issued by the better class of publish CTS, is decreasing. An entire volume is often built up about an incident that would barely serve for sketch. The sayings and doings of hollow chested young men and spirituelle young women are strung together and labled "a novel," and the voracious public, suffering from literary indi- gestion, buy and devour it and pay no attention to its quality. The ''mo- tives" of lot of inconsequential peo- pie are dissected, and the stream of their idle babble is followed through all it's simple wanderings.
 The average American needs a spi- nal column. We have had a world of weak, senseless, namby- -pamby books Even Mir. Howclls has seized pocket camera and is stealing through the drawingrooms and the college cele- brations of the east, getting photo graphic samples of "moteives' and ''situations" from real life.

Society Run Mad.

NJ. NJ. Brennan, in Eufaula (Ala.) Times.
 The voluptuaries who constitute the ettte of the metropolitan modern SO cial world have thus far escaped the dissecting blade of the society surgeon in the person of the social critic, though his analytical eye has gone over the expanse of the general econ- omy day out for quite while, until now the keenness of his vision de- tects disease on the social body, and of a cancerOus character, It is called immodesty, and gets it's first danger ous symptoms, like bad cold, from exposure.
 The encroachments of fashion are insidious and as progressively debas- ing as they are given to change, their fixed purpose, concealed though it be, being to rob woman of the most pre- cious of her characteristics mod esty, her chief charm being sacrificed to expose to carnal susceptibility the brazen and purely physical. As if the exhibition of any physical per- lection could compensate for the loss of that inestimable attribute which gives to woman her superiority over any created thing. Fie on fashion and its devotees, Give us modesty in homespun rather than lascivious ex- hibition in satins and lace and dia- monds. Verify society has run mad, it is no longer fashionable" for wives to bear children, or if this "misfor- tune" should befall, it is mot in good form" for the mother to nurse them. What monstrous era is this we live in. What a mOnstrous thing is this society" this fashion? The devil has a potent agent in it, q thing that does not possess a re,leening feature Viewed from a temporal standpoint alone it is monstrous, but when scanned in the light of spiritual ex- animation it becomes appalling. A reflective consideration of the sub ject may well give us pause, and a most pertinent inquiry comes to be, whither are we socially drifting? The pulpit appears powerless to suppress the evil; it therefore remains for it's valiant auxiliary, the press. to turn the thunders of its columns against it and so regulate it in twenty four hours, as coul1 be done with simulta- neous effort. The press has voice for good, let it use it. The subject is pregnant with evil, and modesty and virtue claim the protection of their steadfast friend, the press. Let im- modesty go.

Where Are You Going {?

If you have pain in the back, pale and sallow complexion, bilious or sick headache, eruptions on the skin, coated tongue, sluggish circulation, or a hacking cough, you are going into your grave if you do not take steps to cure yourself. If you are wise you will do this by the use of Dr. Pierce's "Golden Medical Discovery" com pounded of the most efficacious ingre- dients known to medical science for giving health and strength to the system through the medium of the liver and the blood.

A Terrible Chamber. Victor Hugo's Memoirs.

This chamber occupies the ground
 floor of the crenulated tower, the smallest of the three round towers on
 the quay. In the center was an omi-
 nous and singular looking object. It
 was sort of long and narrow table of
 lias- stone, joined with moulten lead
 poured into the crevices, very heavy and supported on three stone legs.
 This table was about two and half feet high, eight feet long and twenty
 inches wide. On looking up I saw a great rusty iron hook fastened in the
 round stone which forms the keystone of the arch. This object is the rack.
 A feather covering used to be put over it upon which the victim was stretched. Ravaillac remained for six
 weeks upon this table, with his hands and feet tied, bound at the waist by q strap attached to long chain hang ing from the ceiling. The last ring of this chain was slipped on to the hook, which still saw fixed above my head. Six gentlemen guards and six guards of the provost department watched him night and day Da- miens was guarded like Ravaillac in this chamber, and tied down upon this table during the whole time occupied by the inquiry and the trial of his case. Desrues and Cartouche were tortured upon it. The Marchioness dc Brinvilliers was stretched upon it stark naked, fastened down, and, so to speak, quartered by four chains att tached to the four limbs, and there suffered the frightful extraordinary torture by water,' which caused her to ask; How are you going to con- tinue to put that great barrel of water ill this little body?'
 "A whole dark history is there, hay ing filtered, so to speak, drop by drop into the pores of these stones, these walls, this vault, this bench, this ta- ble, this pavement, this door. There it all is; it has never quilted the place. It has been shut up there {; it has been bolted up. Nothing has es- capped from it, nothing has evapoated no one has ever spoken, related, be- trayed, revealed anything of it. This crypt, which is like the mouth of funnel turned upside down. this case made by the hands of man, this stone box, has kept the secret of all the blood 1t has drunk, of all the shrieks it has stuffed. The frightful occur rences which have taken place in this judges den still palpitate and live, and exhale all sorts of miasms. What strange abomination is this tower placed in the very middle of the quay, without any moat or wall to separate it from the passer-by. Inside the saws, the boots, the wooden horses, the wheels, the pincers, the hammers which knock in the wedges, the hiss ing of flesh touched with the red-hot iron, the spluttering of blood upon the live embers, the cold interrogato- ries of the magistrates, the despairing shrieks of the tortured man; outside, within four paces, citizens coming and going, women chattering, children playing, trades people selling their wares, vehicles rolling along, boats upon the river, the roar of the city, air, sky, sun, liberty"

CREScENTIUS.
BY WILL HUBBARD.KERNAN

Behold him as he stands The chains upon his hands, The noblest and the knightliest one in all the Roman landsl
 On his black charger he Had led to victory Ten thousand thousand soldiers through the battle dln and dree. Then streamed his war. plume white, Cleaned in the golden light ihs mail and helmet, bearing deep the dint of many light;
 Now cruel rack and wheel His flesh is made to feel; But, lol his true, unmurmuring lips no secret will reveal.
 Behold his quyering framel Behold the proud, calm flame Within his eagle eyes the while they taunt h1s naked shame,
 And break his battle-sword That for themselves hath poured The blood of freemen where the flag of Rome imperial scared! ''step forthr The head sman leads, And, though each fibre bleeds, Crescentius goes with grand, high mien to die for noble deeds. With bright, unbandagcd eye Doth he the axe defy While bending to it's bloody stroke. \ mad quick tiger cry Leaps from the people there Rage, pathos and desp pair Blend in the awful wall that breaks upon the
 Roman air.
 Thus Tn a devil age
 Was the historic page Splashed with the blood of men who threw at
 Tyranny the gage; Thus did they dree and die On block cr0ss-tree nigh Because the hell .whelps on the throne they boldly did defy.
 And though the rack and wheel, And though the headman's steel No man within our boastful land hath yet
 been made to feel, Still, if we dare defy A mailed or mitred lie Of Church or State it's tools will hate and
 hound us till we dIe.
